Good morning with good news: Japan, world's 4th largest economy, cut its fossil fuel generated electricity from 73.1% in June 2018 to 54.8% in June 2025. That's 18.3 points drop or 2.6 points/year! It could be near zero FF by 2045. Gas fell from 38.1% to 27.4% Coal fell from 30% to 20% #energysky
Your post made me think that agrivoltaics as an industry is probably more advanced in Japan than perhaps anywhere. I don't know whether that is the case, but #AgPV is certainly growing there and this is an old graph too.
Interesting. Solar and nuclear are up the most in generation share in Japan since 2018.
5th largest
Actually, California is now the 4th largest economy. In July 2025 California became the largest economy in the world to be powered by 2/3 clean energy.
True, but not a national economy.
Great, and what is the US doing? Going backwards…..😵💫
They get it.
True.
This is great news!
Good for them!!
